Anyone have experience with these injectors? I have them fitted to my recently acquired 73 1.7 with standard Djet.
My car is currently running very rich / flooding and the injectors are heading to a local specialist for testing as we suspect one of them is sticking. The alternative is they are the wrong spec for the car. Anyone else run them? https://www.fiveomotorsport.com/hose-type-e...ro-asian-sport/ They are the 380cc type. Thanks, Chris |

No, they are compatible--they spray a metered amount of fuel just fine.
It's just that it's the wrong amount for a 1.7 engine. They can probably be made to inject the right amount for a 1.7, but it will require work to the rest of the FI. It's a fine difference between "compatible" and "correct", but it's there. Especially if you are selling the parts. --DD |

I would need to order replacement injectors from the US so that would take a while so if tweaking is relatively straightforward that would be an option for sure. What is the correct metered about a 1.7 injector should deliver? |
